Winning a match like this is truly unexpected with lower order batsman (actually bowler). At some point I was thinking that India will loss the game but Deepak Chahar just nailed it! It was a close match like Bangladesh & Zimbabwe second ODI. Both team had equal chance to win the game during death overs. I think India will get an easy victory on the 3rd ODI match.

LOL.. who would have imagined that Deepak Chahar would top score for India (with the bat)? I don't want to take anything away from Chahar. But Sri Lanka has a lot to introspect, if someone like Deepak Chahar is scoring at a rate of 10 runs per over against their mainstream bowlers. The only exception to the carnage was Wanindu Hasaranga (10-0-37-3). And this is how Sri Lanka performs against an Indian side, which lacks many of the top players (they are currently based in England). Sri Lanka is also missing most of their regular players (due to completely different reasons), so it gets complicated.

Lol India Won after losing all batters.
I had some sort of hope in lower middle order in context of resistance but i didn't expect 2 bowlers to finish the game like this for India. Bhuvi and Chahar know thing or two about batting but this was unexpected. Finishing the game with maturity like a batter, we don't expect this from the bowlers.
Bat deep bat deep in every freaking format...

After a lot of drama, the Indian team won today's match against Sri Lanka. However, we have to admit that the Sri Lankan team has played very well today. However, with the help of Deepak Chahar's extraordinary performance at the last moment, India won the match. I would like to give full credit to Deepak Chahar for winning this match.

I will not agree when you claim that the Sri Lankan team has played well. In that case, they should have won the match. They had Indian struggling at 116/5, and then again at 193/7. If they lost the match from that position, then it is definitely their fault. They had a good chance of levelling the series. How can they allow a tail-end batsmen like Chahar to score a half-century? Individual performances were there from some of the Sri Lankan players (Charith Asalanka and Avishka Fernando in batting, and Wanindu Hasaranga in bowling). But they failed to perform as a team.

Excellent fightback from Lankan's bowlers. Top 3 Indian batters and 1st match winners already out and India still need 190ish runs to win. Its a tremendous opportunity for Indian Middle-lower order, if they want to prove their worth in such chase. Manish Pandey's career might get some lifeline if he's able to use this platform.

Ban vs Zim game is looking juicy. Bongs are fav tho.

India lost 3 of their top order batsmen by just 65 runs. But we have to remember that it is the India team. They are talented and experienced enough. At the moment, India have scored 114 runs in 16 overs. Run rate is good enough. And if they don't lose wickets in the next 10 overs, they will get an easy win in this match as usual.

Throughout the ODI series ZimvsBAN Bangladeshi players played so well, their is mixture of performance both senior and junior which is great sign. Bangladesh have some quality finisher to sweep the game. Congratulations Tamim for century and Bangladesh win the series 0-3

I thought that Zimbabwe had the advantage after they made a total of close to 300. But once again, they lost a match from a winning position. The team coordination is simply inexistent among the Zimbabwe players. They could have won at least one ODI match. That would have helped them to climb to the 12th position in the ODI league. Now their prospects really look gloomy. Their next ODI series is against Ireland, and if they perform poorly in Ireland, then it is all over for them. I don't think that they will be able to get a series win, with their current form.

This match was completely under Zimbabwe. They lost the match due to their own failure. The target of 300 runs was enough to win against a team like Bangladesh. But Zimbabwe's bowlers could not take advantage of the opportunity. They lost the match due to lack of experienced players in the team.

You are right. Their team lacks coordination of players. If the bowlers perform well, the batsmen perform poorly and if the batsmen play well, we see the bowlers bowling poorly. Zimbabwe scored 298 runs today. If the bowlers had done their duty properly, Zimbabwe could have easily beaten Bangladesh today. Bangladesh collected 97 runs in 16 overs, losing one wicket. Yet both teams have equal chances of winning.

Even now it is like 50/50. Bangladesh was cruising nicely, but then they lost the crucial wicket of Liton Das. Now the run rate is once again going down, as Shakib Al Hasan is settling down himself at the crease. The plus point for Bangladesh here is that the require rate is still below 6 runs per over, and they need less than 200 runs additional now. Two of the best Bangladesh batsmen are at the crease now (Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan). However, just one more quick wicket will give the advantage back to Zimbabwe.

I think every player of the Bangladesh team has been able to fulfill their responsibilities properly. Mahmudullah could not score a run but he bowled well. Moreover, young player Nurul Hasan is playing great. He has proved his mettle in the time required by the team. We have seen a remarkable innings of 45 runs from Nurul Hasan.

I'm just watching this match. Zimbabwe's player was really batting enough well. Now I want to see how the players of Bangladesh perform. 10 overs are over. Bangladesh scored 57 runs without losing a wicket. Great start for Bangladesh. If they do not lose any wicket in the next 10 overs, then I think Bangladesh will win this match.

There is no team cohesion in Zimbabwe. When the bowlers perform well, their batsmen doesn't back them up. And today, their batsmen put up a total close to 300, but the bowlers are looking pathetic out there. Donald Tiripano just now conceded 11 runs from a single ball (a waist-high full toss that was put out for boundary and then the free hit which was hit for a six). For the Zimbabwe fans who are watching this match, it will be quite depressing. The body language of the players suggest that they are not aiming for the win.

Zimbabwe's batting against Bangladesh has fascinated me. The batsmen have batted brilliantly. Chakabva and Ryan Buri in particular have done remarkably well. With their help, Zimbabwe managed to collect 298 runs. Zimbabwe gave Bangladesh a huge target of 299 runs. If Zimbabwe's bowlers can perform well, they will win today. Let's see what will happen.

LOL.. if they win the match today, then Sri Lanka, in all probability will be relegated to the 13th position in World Cup Super League. But then, it is Zimbabwe. They have a reputation of losing matches form a winning position. Bangladesh has got a good start and they are 55/0 after 9 overs. Both Liton Das and Tamim Iqbal looks to be in good touch. Bangladesh need to make sure that they don't lose any wickets in the opening spell from Blessing Muzarabani. The other Zimbabwe bowlers are more manageable.

Zimbabwe batted well enough and the target of 299 runs was enough to win against Bangladesh's batting lineup. But whatever you say, it’s Zimbabwe and they have a reputation for losing. Bangladesh scored 82 runs in just 12 overs. Zimbabwe's bowlers have yet to take a wicket. At this moment, Bangladesh is more likely to win.

^^ They are repeating same mistakes again n again. Everyone got the start but failed to convert their innings into big ones, in longer run they will learn this trick tho which is necessary for their survival. Indian bowlers are doing okay on this pitch but fielding was average during first power play.

Sri Lanka already lost 4 wickets and are struggling again, they need to find players that could hold their middle order if not it is not going to be easy moving forward.

If the players of the Sri Lankan team had performed somewhat responsibly, they could have fought hard to win against India today. After losing the first wicket by 77 runs, they have lost 4 valuable wickets in 134 runs. I don't think the Sri Lankan team can collect more than 260 colors. Sri Langka needed a minimum of 300 runs to win against the Indian team. Because Sri Lanka's bowling lineup is weak.

Underdogs on top in both the ODIs that are ongoing now. Sri Lanka has made 68/0 after 11.3 overs, while Zimbabwe is in a strong position at 225/5 after 43.1 overs. Both the teams badly need 10 points from today's games, as they are currently placed at the rock bottom of the ODI World Cup League points table. Sri Lanka should have had 15 points, but they recently received -2 in penalty for slow over rate. If these teams can't get points from the ongoing series, then they can say goodbye to their chances of directly qualifying to CWC 2023.

From a dismal start from Zimbabwe and their struggle in the middle overs till the 40th over, they ended up reaching 298 runs in the end and no one would have expect that kind of performance in the last few overs apart from the last two overs and Bangladesh have a huge total to chase and it is not going to be easy for them to chase this score if their top order fails again.
